TESTIMONIALS

"One word that comes to mind from this experience is WOW. Unbelievable violin performance with a real nuanced sense of tone and energy that perfectly matched the song. Great communication and I felt like there was real focus and attention on what would work best for the project. And the performance itself was so dynamic and beautiful. Highly recommended!" - Ron W. via SoundBetter

"Samantha has just executed on and delivered 24 tracks which included bass, cello and strings. The whole string section in the song came to life in the song. It was amazing work!! She communicated very well during the job and always keep me updated on the progress and gave me options on how to proceed. Will definitely be back!!"

"I hired Rogue at first just for a bit of strings on a song. That evolved into several songs also featuring her vocals, and I'm hiring them to produce/master a very pain in the butt song. This is because the work they returned not just rose above expectations, it became emotional Hooks for the pieces, which i didn't know were missing. I can't think of them now without it. And they're just fun and cool to deal with, instantly felt comfortable and unreserved. If you're looking for someone that is safe and experienced in working with the queer community this is it. Bring that work here, it's in great hands!" -Ryan M. via Google

"I asked Samantha, Rogue Violin, if she would be willing to perform at my artist reception in December of 2022. We agreed that a one hour set would be a perfect backdrop for this setting. Samantha arrived early, set up with out disturbing any clients, and executed one of the most beautiful sets I have ever heard. A client even asked her to interpret one of my paintings, which she was able to play an impromptu piece that was absolutely stunning. I cannot recommend Rogue Violin enough, nor find the words to capture her connectivity, creativity and innate ability to make your heart sing." - Liz Vaughn, via Google

“Nobody does it better. Simple as that. If an amateur has the crazy idea to have song embedded in a live symphonic orchestra, most musician would kindly decline. Having worked with Samantha earlier I trusted her to take my ideas and the composition with an approach. Her determination to bring this project to life is outstanding and unparalleled. Her communication is the best possible and I always had the feeling to be listened to. I can´t imagine doing music with orchestra without her.” - Jörg S., via SoundBetter

”I have worked with Rogue Violin Studios on several of my releases, and she never ceases to amaze me with her creative approach! My project is unusual in that it includes genres from different time periods, so I can attest to the fact that Rogue Violin is amazingly versatile. Whether I'm requesting a nod to classical music, a 90's-inspired alt rock song, or something that sounds like it's playing on a radio in 1929, Rogue Violin always contributes an emotive and intuitive creation that immediately becomes an unforgettable part of the song. I can't wait to send her another song, and I highly recommend Rogue Violin to anyone who wants to add something captivating to their composition or occasion!” - Danica Odyssey, viaGoogle

“Samantha did a beautiful job on a string arrangement needed for an artist's song. She was communicative, prompt, professional and created a stunning arrangement. Not to mention her pro-level performance and intuitive composition. Was a pleasure having her on the song - highly recommend working with her!” - Glow Box Productions, via Google

“The first time Samantha sent me the string arrangements and I dropped them into my track, I wept. I had never heard my song sound so beautiful. When I found Samantha at Rogue Violin, I knew that this was the right match. But I wanted to be extra sure. Samantha was doing a concert in Santa Cruz, so I drove from Palo Alto to meet her and hear her play. It was a magical night of music that confirmed I had made the right choice. I gave Samantha highly detailed instruction as to the varying emotional signatures that unfold throughout the song and asked her to musically interpret them. Easy to communicate with, she was willing to meet my artistic vision. She not only met it, she transcended it. Her arrangements brought a level of emotion and artistic craftsmanship that elevated the song to a place I had not previously imagined. It also elevated me as the writer/producer. I reworked the song to meet the standard of excellence her contribution bestow.” -Rob Morris, via Google
